Look at what the Fujifilm X-T3, X-T30 and X-Pro3 are capable of. :)

Pentax can't go under. Pentax is a mere brand, used by two large corporations, Hoya for medical equipment and Ricoh for photo equipment.

The launch price of the K-3 II was much lower than that of the K-3: €999 / $1,099 instead of €1,299 / $1,299.

Indeed...
In Europe the mid-range KP was as expensive at launch as the high-end K-3: €1,299 for both.

Remember that the KP's RRP at launch was €1,299. This one will definitely be more expensive.

If it weren't, there wouldn't have been any Pentax DSLR ever. Nor any Pentax camera since 1957 for that matter -Asahi Optical never manufactured film cartridges.

Rumour is also going round that there will be a common successor to Canon EOS 80D and 7D Mark II, rather a 90D than a 7D Mark III.

The Bayer / X-Trans array is added in front of the sensor itself, together with the IR/UV filter and the anti-aliasing filter, if any.

Hasselblad, Leica and Phase One but they don't affect CIPA numbers.

That plus the increased competition from high-end mirrorless cameras since Canon, Nikon and Panasonic launched a bunch of 24x36 mirrorless cameras in 2018H2 and 2019H1.

Yet midrange and high-end DSLRs get even more pummelled than entry-level DSLRs: the drop in DSLR shipments during the first five months of the year is higher in shipment value (minus 44.7 per cent.) than in unit numbers (minus 35.4 per cent.)

@Rico
i think we've got your point. It's your opinion and you share it, others don't. I don't think this thread is in dire need of a n-th post of yours repeating the same opinion again and again.

Copied from Digital Photography Review interviewing Hasselblad concerning their new X1D II 50C but the same could apply to the successor of K-3 II:
 Quote: The main changes in the new body are centered around performance and speed of operation, all of which have been achieved using a new faster processor and a whole new electronics system. (...) the new processor (...) has cut start-up time almost in half, has produced reduced shutter lag and black-out time between frames. It can also run the 60fps EVF while also adding 30% to the maximum frame rate (...). To cope with this new processor the camera has had a complete electronic make-over inside with an entirely redesigned system.
The new processor also helps the auto focus run more quickly, speeding up acquisition and tracking. Source: Uwe Moebus of Hasselblad - "We have learnt that we should launch products when they are fully developed" | Digital Photography Review |

Don't forget that the last two Pentax cameras (KP and K-1 II) came 'out of the blue', without any harbinger.

I'm afraid they have not. They have merely stated that a successor to the K-3 II was under development.
